Advances in Scale Assessment of Seabird Bycatch: A New Methodological Framework

Diversity, 2023
This paper presents a methodology for indirectly estimating the scale of seabird bycatch using existing data. The study focuses on five key species of ducks that winter in the Polish waters of the Baltic Sea and are highly susceptible to bycatch: Long ...

Illuminating gillnets to save seabirds and the potential for multi-taxa bycatch mitigation [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2018
Bycatch in net fisheries is recognized as a major source of mortality for many marine species, including seabirds. Few mitigation solutions, however, have been identified.

Genetic assignment of fisheries bycatch reveals disproportionate mortality among Alaska Northern Fulmar breeding colonies

Evolutionary Applications, 2022
Global fisheries kill millions of seabirds annually through bycatch, but little is known about population‐level impacts, particularly in species that form metapopulations. U.S.

Seabird bycatch in a sardine purse seine fishery

ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2020
Abstract Limited understanding of seabird bycatch in purse seine fisheries has been highlighted as a key information gap in assessments of seabird bycatch in fisheries globally. This study documents the bycatch of breeding flesh-footed shearwaters (Ardenna carneipes) in a sardine purse seine fishery on the southern coast of Western ...

Impacts of local human activities on the Antarctic environment [PDF]

, 2008
We review the scientific literature, especially from the past decade, on the impacts of human activities on the Antarctic environment. A range of impacts has been identified at a variety of spatial and temporal scales.

Assessing incidental bycatch of seabirds in Norwegian coastal commercial fisheries: Empirical and methodological lessons

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2015
With diminishing seabird populations and little knowledge on incidental bycatch in fisheries in the Northeast Atlantic, this study aimed to screen seabird bycatch in Norwegian coastal fisheries in 2009. The purpose was to 1) quantify magnitude of seabird

Seabird bycatch in a Baltic coastal gillnet fishery is orders of magnitude larger than official reports

Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2022
Bycatch, or the incidental capture of non-target species in fisheries, has been identified as one of the major threats affecting seabird populations worldwide.

Sex-related variation in the vulnerability of wandering albatrosses to pelagic longline fleets [PDF]

, 2016
The population of wandering albatrosses Diomedea exulans at South Georgia is decreasing because of bycatch in longline fisheries. Until at least the early 1990s, the survival rate of females was lower than males, consistent with the adult female-biased ...
